Whitepapers & Research text
-
Anyone know of a site where I might find whitepapers or research text for free? Specifically looking for bioinformatics/computational biology, machine learning and OS security. Subjects are extremely varied I know. This is very firmly in the world of academia. Google Scholar returns a zillion hits, but it almost seems like every single good possible can only be downloaded from acm or ieee for $$$.

Try Google advanced search and search for your specific topics but limit the domains to .edu. I've had a lot of luck finding technical papers posted on professor's and grad student's personal pages on the university sites.
If you don't have the data, you're just another asshole with an opinion.
I really think Chris ought to let us vote twice. I'd like to give you a 5 both for the post and the sig.

Libraries full of books, but they all happen to be copies of the Koran?
No, not even that. Simply antiquated from when the library was opened.

I'm a member of IEEE. If you email me links I can probably get some for you.

I owe you :) I'll see what I can do about those links this afternoon. Thanks Leckey

So you mean you can't find information on bioinformatics in the Corpus Aristotelicum? Well tickle me pink. :omg:

I can't take too much credit for the sig, I have the shirt. Although their phrasing is a bit more PC than mine. ;)

I'll second Citeseer - they have a lot of papers and a pretty good interface.

I have not seen anything in my inbox; have you sent anything directly to me? I don't think the email link works.

I haven't sent anything yet Leckey. Sorry, got bogged down with this whole PhD thing. Need to find a school that has my research interests and pays a stipend large enough to support me and my family. Not easy. I'll email something tomorrow (my time) if that's OK with you? Hey, didn't you mention once that you want to get your PhD? What particular field and from where? (getting ideas for the location, I want to do either Bioinformatics/Computational biology or Robotics [Control])

Not a problem-- I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss an email. I am still working on my Masters. It is MS Engineering with an emphasis in Comp Sci because that was all that was available where I lived. I have looked at switching to other programs including an online MIS program from Dakota State University. (Yes, different from South Dakota State University!) I would like to focus on linguistics and computers; most MCAT and other higher test use computers to calculate written scores which I think the algorithms interesting. Otherwise I would like to study inflections on other languages. My graduate school advisor is from the southern part of South Korea and they always sound "angry" when talking on the phone in his native language; it's just the inflections. I'm interested in looking at if someone is lying or what their mood is based on their native language and what they have learned for a second language. I have not found any studies about this so I think it would be somewhat ground-breaking. I think it would be interesting to use robotics to look at micro-facial expressions which the FBI and other agencies look at from tape to see if someone is lying. An interviewer might not recognize them immediately, but if you look at a tape in slow-motion you can see it better. Program the robot to notify the interviewer right away if they look like they are decietfull/truthfull and maybe what questions to ask if questionable.\ Sometimes I wish I lived in a bigger population area! I'd love to see you take on some of my ideas, but I'm sure you'll do great no matter what you look at!

Suddenly, I feel like I've got a lot of work to do to live up to that! :-O Both ideas you've mentioned sound extremely interesting. Particularly the micro-facial expressions real time analysis. You might be interested in this: OpenCV[^]. The whole university search is getting really depressing. I've got grades high enough to make me eligible for competitive entry into some of the best schools, but I can't afford them because the higher stipend paying ones are usually in the big towns where life costs $$$. So now I'm considering the likes of University of Tennessee at Knoxville, University of Missouri at Columbia, Georgia Tech if I get awarded a fellowship and a TA position, University of Georgia, University of Montana, University of New Mexico at Albq and Rutgers. Rutgers and Georgia Tech are obviously my preferred choices, so here's hoping. :sigh: I know a lot more people with much bigger problems in their life, but for the moment, this has me in a tight grip of depression and its not letting go.

Have you looked at University of Nebraska? They are a large school and there are several smaller towns surrounding it like Pappillon (spelling might be wrong) that are lower in costs. That's true for a lot of midwest campuses. Minneapolis (University of MN) has several locations; if you can live outside the Twin Cities it's quite a bit cheaper. It's so hard to make a living AND further your education AND make an impact towards the future. They need to change that. I really feel for you and your situation! I haven't looked at your link yet, but I will this week. From what I have studied on my own, most cultures have the same identifiers for lying which I find so facinating--what genes are these behaviors stored on? Are they found in other high-intelegence animals? I have found that when I watch shows from the US like 48 Hours or Dateline I can tell who is found guilty or innocent based on their interviews. (Those who are found guilty refer to the dead as 'my wife/husband' or 'my child' etc versus "Lis" or "Jane" etc. Yet I have not found a study that addresses this.) Anyhow, I know you are a very talented programmer, and I truly hope you get your choice of schools to show of your talents. No matter the subject, I know you will do well.

Looking at them now. Nebraska looks promising. I like the Mid West.

I forgot you are used to the cold! North Dakota State University in Fargo also has a PhD (Comp Sci and Soft. Eng.) program but I don't know about robotics. UND does not have a PhD program but they have a big aviation program there. Schools in North Dakota are a lot less expensive than some of the other schools.
